### "Talk with data"

February 27, 2020

Fantastic, easy to use tool

Pros

XL 810, gives me true data, showing me where we are losing production time. This allows me to prioritise any improvements, to get the best return on my investments

Cons

Nothing really, it's all really easy to use

Reason for choosing Vorne XL Platform

Ease of use, cost effective

### "Best Productivity Monitor Around"

November 25, 2025

5.0

We tried multiple other productivity monitors and Vorne XL is the best, hands down. It is customizable for any of our production lines, easy to standardize from line to line and the user interface makes it simple and fast for operators to use. Their tech support is unmatched too!

Pros

Ease of use, customizability, user interface, their tech support is one of the best I have ever encountered

Cons

I haven't come across any problems with it so far. I have installed them across 12 lines and only one device was faulty. They replaced it ASAP no wuestions asked

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Vorne XL Platform

Price, ease of setup, easy user interface for operators

Switched from

[Leap](https://www.capterra.com/p/162690/Leap/)

Leap was more expensive, had ess functionality and didn't track downtime reasons, only when there was downtime occurring

### "Vorne administrator and user over 8 years"

February 27, 2026

5.0

All reports, down time, performance and quality loss data coming from XL displays became the way to monitor, take necessary actions by production alerts reaching all relevant people any time there is a problem. We created SIC (Short Interval Control) Leader positions in each shift who help operate XL displays and use alert barcodes and explanations to inform all relevant people about the weaknesses. Shift, daily meetings are being done regarding these reports, alerts to take the corrective, preventive actions. OEE moved from 40% to 70% over the years. I am proud of being the part and admin of this system.

Pros

XL Platform changed the production mindset in the company. Easy to use, good value for money, excellent customer service any time we need them helped create a powerful OEE culture.

Cons

Actually, we do not have any remarkable cons. The only contribution/ request could be to have an opportunity to be able to change product threshold without admin password need that could avoid sharing it, but it is minor and just a "wish".

### "Top Notch after sales support."

December 11, 2025

5.0

Overall, the customer support you get with Vorne is above anyone else. As controls engineer, I have delt with a lot of after sales support teams and I will happily say Vorne's has been the best experience to date. Straight forward to the point and they will do whatever they can to make you satisified.

Pros

The customer support team is superb. The after sales experience has been the best I have ever encountered. Dealing with the support team has been very easy and they know their stuff. The devices themselves are very handy. Once you get them setup there is very little upkeep with them.

Cons

Sometimes the devices can be a little finicky to get them to communicate to the servers or to our PLC's. But usually, they will resolve themselves.

### "Great in every way"

March 20, 2026

5.0

Pros

This software is simple, well thought-out, easy to use, full of features, and maintained extremely well. The tech support is the best of any company I have interacted with, I always get someone who is essentially an expert on the entire platform and is able to either come up with a solution or for the very infrequent larger bugs, I am promptly turned over to the bug fix team who has a solution either that day or the next. The software has yet to fail us for any feature we've wanted for tracking our line performance and has been easy to integrate with a custom HMI.

Cons

The only cons with the platform that I've encountered are really just tradeoffs, they trade an inability to do one thing for the ability to better track or do another thing. I've never come to Vorne saying "I wish I could do this" and come away thinking that there really is a better way to do things.

### "Excellent Product and Company"

March 19, 2025

5.0

Vorne has been absolutely great to work with. As someone who has been involved extensively in setting up and configuring multiple Vorne systems within our factory, their instruction guides are very detailed and take you through the exact steps to get up and running according to your specific needs for that piece of equipment. There are so many features that we use to make data tracking and analysis easier on operators, engineers, and management. We previously used a different data monitoring mechanism in one plant area, and we have since switched to Vorne because it is significantly better. We would have a very hard time living without Vorne now that we have it deployed throughout our plant! Vorne customer service has been nothing short of stellar. Their responses are always quick, kind, and thorough - especially \[sensitive content hidden\] We will continue using Vorne throughout our factory as they have turned often laborious tracking and tasks into something extremely easy.

Pros

\- Very easy to configure, program, and use - Outstanding customer service representatives - Reliable and detailed data tracking - Extensive features and programming available online - Ability to create and save various views for different data analyses - Ability to monitor from anywhere (with access to IP address) - Ability to link together several Vornes in a hierarchy to accurately reflect your entire manufacturing system

Cons

Sometimes missing certain features and functionalities that I found myself wanting. These features are always "nice to have" features, not "need to have" features, and they are always noted by Vorne for future development if I reach out to customer service and ask about it. An example of a feature it lacked that I wanted: the ability to deploy a shift schedule I created at a predetermined future date and time. Currently, you can only change schedules at that exact moment in time. Certainly not a "need to have feature," just a "nice to have" feature.

### "My Vorne XL 1 Year Experience"

March 6, 2025

5.0

Overall experience has been great. Saving a lot of time on generating reports. I get live data. The alerts you can set up are good so you are always aware when OEE or efficiency drops. No much human invertention is needed so our downtime data is more accurate unlike our previous system. The staff is always able to help with configuration or technical support. They have good videos and muanls. Overall experience has met expectations.

Pros

Extremely user firendly to navigate throught the system and look at data,create reports, and adjust settings. Easy installation of the XL upgrade with easy to follow manuals and guides. Configuration of one device is easy and once you have it done for one device you can simply download and upload that configuration onto other devices with similar configuration settings. The staff at Vorne is also extremley knowlegable and always willing to help you get the best experience out of the Vorne XL platfrom.

Cons

I currently have nothing negative to say about the system or staff.

### "Sunstar - Vorne XL review "

November 6, 2025

5.0

Vorne XL is a platform that is very versatile and excellent customer support when initially setting up. I give this platform 10 out 10.

Pros

Vorne provides excellent customer support and comprehensive documentation; many reviewers have noted that their support team is highly responsive and consistently helpful.

Cons

Integration with legacy systems / more bespoke IT infrastructure may require work. One independent comparison noted that integration might require custom development

### "Vorne Experience"

November 3, 2025

5.0

We are in our first full season with Vorne at some of our locations. The teams have really grasped onto the system and have embraced the reporting functions that give us accurate data and the ability to make confident decisions.

Pros

Vorne XL makes the important data you need easily accessible, and even more important, accurate. The data entry is as simple as scanning a QR code, allowing team members to focus on what matters, Safety, quality and delivery.

Cons

Upscaling for a large corporation can be tricky. We are fortunate to have a lot of talented people that can help implement and train on the Vorne system.

### "I wish I knew about this system five years ago!"

November 11, 2025

5.0

It has been a very instructive and rewarding experience; I have finally been able to monitor our OEE in real-time, along with other essential metrics.

Pros

I like how easy it is to use and configure, as well as its customer support. I can speak with a person in minutes, and they are all very knowledgeable and friendly.

Cons

I don't have anything specific to point out, it has plenty of functionalities and is very customizable.

### "VORNE XL'S...THE ONLY CHOICE!"

March 25, 2025

5.0

I am very pleased with our Vorne boards but much more important to me is the service after the sale. I have scheduled a few virtual meetings to trouble-shoot an issue or to change configurations and CANNOT say enough good things about the support staff!\[sensitive content hidden\] in particular has gone above and beyond to make sure my issues are dealt with.

Pros

It is very customizable. I can't imagine there is any kind of metric that CAN'T be captured with the Vorne XL platform.

Cons

I really do not have any con's regarding the Vorne XL platform.

July 8, 2025

5.0

Good. Takes effort to build the culture with operators for data entry. \[sensitive content hidden\] have been great help!!!

Pros

ability to show a shift snapshot of how the line is performing at any time. Great at slicing and dicing data in different looks.

Cons

inability to capture a downtime within a changeover, then at the end of the down period, return Vorne to the same changeover event.

### "XL Platform = BIG OEE GAINS!"

September 26, 2024

We've been successfully reporting ALL machine data digitally with the VORNE/XL Platform for SIX years. Over this timeframe we have incrementally raised our company wide OEE by 14%.

Pros

VISION of my entire manufacturing operation on 1 screen has provided incredible insight for continuous improvement and actionable real time surveillance. Hardware Stability, Data Accuracy, Ease of Use, Ease of Connection, automated reporting, custom reporting and service after the sale are a few of great features of the XL Platform.

Cons

Previous versions were good, but the updated XL platform is Great.

### "All Around Excellence"

May 7, 2020

5.0

With real time collection and reporting of data, todays problems are solvable today. From better understanding of downtime, to speed and quality opportunities, Vorne provides an ability for decision makers to have the information they need to improve processes and performance. After initial installation in one of our division's facilities, and demonstrated success in performance and capability, we are working to expand utilization to support process improvement in multiple locations.

Pros

The ease of use by front line operators and real time tracking capabilities along with customizable reporting options make a world of difference in our efforts to move from actual state to target state in production processes and continuous improvement initiatives.”

Cons

Constant Communication and open dialogue between our organization and the team at Vorne make overcoming subtle issues easy, and learning continuous. There is nothing to dislike about this software.

Reason for choosing Vorne XL Platform

We chose Vorne based on referral from other facilities inside of our organization.

### "XL makes a big difference"

April 14, 2019

5.0

Strategically, XL helps to organize the improvement efforts through the "top losses" report.

Pros

XL provides a clear visibility with real-time performance monitoring of all lines, even when you are out of the factory. The new alerting function is so useful. It warns you when performance go down. It is easy to configure and easy to set to any production environment. The reporting is so powerful and can be customized for different set of KPIs.

Cons

I hope that the help videos will cover all the features in the future.

Response from Vorne Industries

September 13, 2019

Thank you Hossam - I'm glad you like our alerting functionality. Next month we'll start adding the option to send automated emails based on how the production process is running. We'll make sure to keep you in the loop!

### "Plug and Play Goodness!!!"

April 12, 2019

5.0

Loyal customer due to: ease of instalation, ease of use and ultimate power for positive impacts. Both my plants are all connected with XL.

Pros

Opened the box, made one call to the customer service department and my factory that has been controlled via pen and paper since its inception was online in two days and streaming data straight to my phone. I saw KPIs that I had never seen before and identified huge oportunities where we thought everythgin was under control.

Cons

All my complaints/suggestions were settled (and more) in the newest software version that was recently released.

July 28, 2019

5.0

Pros

Easy to roll out, learn to use, build own dashboards, with unbeatable long term value for money. Fully self contained.

Cons

Doesnt do everything that some other bigger more integrated products do, but this doesnt try to, Just focusses on its core tasks, of monitoring the production line

Reason for choosing Vorne XL Platform

Did 90% of what other much more expensive products do, no ongoing software licence fees, could get it up and running within days, to start improving productivity.

April 23, 2019

5.0

With an installation program spanning some 18 months and 14 sites our team found the software interface easy to understand and deply.

Pros

We particularly like the ease of use and deployment and when you are considering an installation of over 300 lines this has to be a key factor

Cons

Nothing springs to mind any minor misunderstanding which were normally on our part were quickly resolved.
